Simple Way To Arrange Layers In FCP?

I was wondering if it's possible to, let's say, move v24 down to v6 without having to add a track and drag the clips from v24 down? In Motion, you can command-bracket the tracks up and down. Very elegant.
Thanks.

Hi Alex,
I don't think this is really what you want, but I wondered if you were familiar with the 'Option - down/up arrow key'.
If a (video-portion) of a clip is selected you can shift the clip up or down by this shortkey without using the mouse.
Works for audio also.
It does not work if there another clip sitting one layer up or day at the same TC.
Maybe this helps a little

    well i don't think using chanel strip here is the easiest way.i use a lot the chanel strip for producing.i already prepare a lot of different sound using chanel strip .so if i start using it for transfering multi chanel instrument from one side to another it quickly gona become a mess.i could make a folder in the chanel strip list for transfering of course,then erase it after the transfer ,i mean i know this is a way .that's the way i usally use,but i would like to find an easier way.also for the midifile if i export or even diractaly drag and drop i have to replace all the fader and pan...waist of time i think

  • A better way to arrange icons?

    Is there a better way to arrange icons? iTunes just **ed up all of my sorted icons and they are now however iTunes determined them to be. I've got 7 pages that I really don't want to 'click & drag'. It'd be nice if I could arrange them in iTunes.

    Happened to me once. I did a restore and it set them back in the proper spots I had them in before. Other than doing that you have to do them on the phone.

  • I am going to buy a macbook pro for grade 12, and I need to know wheather I should get a macbook pro or a macbook pro retina. If someone could tell me (in a very simple way) which one is,better for me and why, I would be ever so apprreciative.

    Why do you need a expensive MacBook Pro?
    Your attending high school and unless everyone else is rich also your likely going to be a target by the more poorer students for theft or damage to the machine.
    You could keep it home, but if you need it for class then your exposed again.
    Also at that age your not very careful yet, a MacBook Pro is a expensive and easily damaged machine.
    Unless your made of money and so are others at your school, I would recommned a low profile, just does the job cheap Windows PC.
    If it dies, gets lost, stolen or damaged because of your inexperince handling senstivie electronics then it's no big deal.
    You can buy a Mac later on when your sure you have a need for it, currently there isn't much advantage of owning a Mac compared to a PC, they do just about the same things now, one just looks prettier than the other.
    Since 95% of the world uses Windows PC's your going to have to install Windows on the Mac in order to keep your skills up there or be unemployed, so it's a extra headache and expense.
    good luck

  • I have two apple accounts and one of which has my music on. I would like to move this music to the other account. Is there a simple way of doing this?

    I have two apple accounts and one of which has my music on. I would like to move this music to the other account. Is there a simple way of doing this?

    There is currently no way to merge accounts.  The best option is to pick one, and use it consistantly.

  • A way to move layers from one file to another in actions?

    Ok, question for the gurus out there - rather than try to explain, I'll give you an example: Lets say I have a series of adjustment layers that I want to apply to a sequence of 40 images. The adjustments are in a layer group, and are saved as a separate file.
    I DON'T want to drag and drop them, I want to run an action that will copy the adjustments to each image- now I know I can save down each adjustment as a separate file, lets a curve (acv) a selective color (ahu) file and load THAT in as part of my action. But I don't want to do that either, because these adjustments will change and I want to easily re-render my changes on all 40 images in one step.
    I also don't want to use After Effects to do it, because my client doesn't own it. There used to be
    a way to move layers from one file to another in actions because I seem to remember doing it. The answer is not Duplicate Group either because that needs you to specify a destination file name.
    Is it possible to do this without scripting? I'm pretty sure it used to be because I seem to remember doing it, just cant remember HOW I did. Maybe I'm wrong about this though.
    Thanks and sorry for the long post, this has been baffling me for weeks.

    Thanks Ed, but as I explained above
    "I know I can save down each adjustment as a separate file, lets a curve (acv) a selective color (ahu) file and load THAT in as part of my action. But I don't want to do that either"
    What I want to know is is there a way to move adjustment layers from one file to another in an action. I know also that you can use the clipboard to move pixel layers, but I've yet to find a way to move adjustments.

  • I just got new ipad mini....I want to delete all of the music that was synced from my itunes account.  I have went through and deleted some songs one by one but some have a cloud icon with a red arrow on them.....is there a simple way just to delete them?

    Yes there is. Those songs are not actually on your iPad. They are in iCloud ready for download if you choose to do so. If you want to remove them go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Show All>Music>Off. You can also do this in Settings>Music>Show All Music>Off.

  • Looking for a simple way to convert a string to title case

    New to LiveCycle and Javascript.  Looking for a simple way to convert a string to title case, except acronyms.  Currently using the the following, it converts acronyms to lower case:
    var str  =  this.rawValue;
    var upCase = str.split(" ");
    for(i=0; i < upCase.length; i++) {
    upCase[i] = upCase[i].substr(0,1).toUpperCase() + upCase[i].substr(1).toLowerCase();
    this.rawValue = upCase.join(' ');

    Thanks for the reply.
    Found the following script in a forum, which works fine as a "custom validation script" in the.pdf version of my form.  However, it will not work in LiveCycle?  The problem seems to be with
    "return str.replace(/[A-Za-z0-9\u00C0-\u00FF]+[^\s-]*/g"
    function toTitleCase(str) {
    var smallWords = /^(a|an|and|as|at|but|by|en|for|if|in|nor|of|on|or|per|the|to|vs?\.?|via)$/i;
        return str.replace(/[A-Za-z0-9\u00C0-\u00FF]+[^\s-]*/g, function(match, index, title){
    if (index > 0 && index + match.length !== title.length &&
      match.search(smallWords) > -1 && title.charAt(index - 2) !== ":" &&
    (title.charAt(index + match.length) !== '-' || title.charAt(index - 1) === '-') &&
    title.charAt(index - 1).search(/[^\s-]/) < 0) {
    return match.toLowerCase();
    if (match.substr(1).search(/[A-Z]|\../) > -1) {
      return match;
      return match.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + match.substr(1);
    event.value = toTitleCase(event.value);

  • Is there a simple way to retrieve the data from a resultset using JavaBean?

    Well, it is not really simple. But there are Open Source components to simplify it for you. See e.g http://www.must.de/Jacompe.htm - de.must.dataobj.DataObject and its subclasses. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions: [email protected]

  • A simple way in sending message on a large number of contacts?

    Is there a simple way in sending a large number of contacts? I mean, i'll send my message on a group, i.e. "hello" to "classmates" group. I know it is present during ios4 &amp; 5 version? Why now on ios7? How's that? Some of my contacts are changing new numbers so i can't add them to my inbox.

    When a device that is connected to an icloud account has it's contacts deleted, the same contacts at icloud.com are also deleted and then the changes propagate to other computers and devices also connected to the same icloud account.   In other words, the contacts are deleted everywhere.  Also, any iOS backup to icloud does not include contacts or any of the other Apple data, like calendars, reminders, etc.  The only way you can get that data back is if it was on a computer which has been frequently backed up.  You restore the data from the backup.  (This reference to "backup" is a local backup, it has nothing to do with icloud.)

  • Is there an easy way to arrange apps?

    I just had to restore my phone from backup because of an error in updating the software and now I have an empty phone!  I chose the option to restore from backup and the backup I used was from 45 minutes prior.  After running this restore, there were no apps on my phone!  I would think that restoring would put everything back the way it was at the time that you last backed up, but apparently not.....
    Now, my problem is organizing these apps.  I have 206 apps on my phone.  I have been getting these for almost a year now and organizing them into folders as I purchased them, so I never had more than 3 pages on apps on my phone.  Now if I synch these as they are showing in iTunes, I will have 15 pages of apps!  I spent two hours going through in iTunes to just get it down to 10 pages and finally gave up.  It is so hard to move apps from page to page or to create folders in iTunes. Actually creating folders isn't the problem, it's next to impossible to rearrange apps on a page!  I try to move an app to switch the order and I end up creating a new folder.  Then I try to get it out of the folder and it puts it on a different page.  There has got to be a better way!!!!!!!!!
    Please, if ANYBODY knows of a better/easier way to arrange apps, I am all ears!  I have stopped at 10 pages and am synching just so I can go to bed.  I have my commonly used apps basically where I want them, but I really don't want to spend the hours that it is going to take me to get these back the way I want them either using iTunes or on the phone itself. Any suggestions?

    The only way to arrange apps on your phone is either in iTunes or directly on your phone.
    FYI:
    No iTunes content is included in the iPhone backup. After you restore from backup, you must immediately sync to restore your iTunes content. Some users have reported having to restore from backup, followed by immediately restoring from backup again, BEFORE syncing to restore their iTunes content to preserve their app arrangement in various folders.

  • Is there a (relatively simple) way to skip tracks with an iPod touch 5th gen using a physical button? I'm aware songs can be skipped on-screen without unlocking the iPod, but I'm looking for a method that doesn't require taking my eyes off the road.

    Is there a (relatively simple) way to skip tracks with an iPod touch 5th gen using a physical button? I'm aware songs can be skipped on-screen without unlocking the iPod, but I'm looking for a method that doesn't require taking my eyes off the road while driving. For that reason, I'm also not interested in adding in headphones or additional devices that have the desired button functions. Going both forward and back would be great but I would be pleased just to have a "sight-free" way to go forward.
    I've seen some mention here and there about ways to maybe change it so the volume buttons change tracks and holding the volume buttons changes the volume... but I don't know what's involved in that or if its even possible/recommended for a new 5th gen iPod. I think its a great device but its sadly lacking in music oriented functions and features... which is disappointing since music is why most people would bother getting one instead of some other "iDevice" :/

    Given that you cannot do what you have asked for, perhaps you simply need to find another solution to your root problem.
    Presumably, you want to skip to the next track because you don't want to hear the current one, and that is because...
    You don't like it.
    You've heard it recently and don't want to hear it now.
    Simply don't want to hear it at this time.
    For problem number 1. Don't put it on the iPod in the first place. (I know, obvious answer!)
    For problem number 2. How about playing from a Smart Playlist (initially created in your iTunes Library) which has only songs you've not played recently?
    For problem number 3. Hhhmmm! Create alternative Playlists for use in the car.
    As for going back to the start of the "now playing" track.... Well, if your Playlist has only songs that you really, really want to hear, then you'll be looking forward to that rather go back to the beginning of the current song.
    I'm not trying to be prescriptive, just giving you food for thought.
    (They are all cheaper options than buying a car which can control the iPod from the steering wheel.)

  • How do I sync music onto old iPod when my music is on iTunes match? I have connected the iPod to my mac but it indicates no music to sink (as my music is in the cloud). I assume there is a simple way to resolve without downloading all music onto my mac?

    How do I sync my music onto an old iPod when my music is located on iTunes match? I have connected the iPod to my mac but it indicates no music to sink (as my music is stored in the cloud). I assume there is a simple way to resolve without downloading all music onto my mac as this would be ridiculous?
    Any halp with this would be excellant.
    Thanks :P

    Hi,
    Your old pod can only sync with music that is physically in your itunes library and on your hard drive. Therefore there is simple way to resolve is to download your music to your hard drive.

  • Simple way to insert data from one table

    Hi,
    I need to know a simple way on how to transfer the data from one table to another....
    First table xx_inv_tab1 has three columns col1, col2, col3 and where as second table xx_inv_tab2 has five columns col1, col2, col3, col4, col5.
    Here col2, col3, col4 are the same columns as in table1 xx_inv_tab1...
    Now I want to transfer first table data in to second table .... first column of second table holds a sequence, followed by the first table three columns data and followed with col4 and col5 which will hold NULL values....
    In my scenario, I have 70 - 75 columns in my first table which I want to move to second table which three new columns (one is sequence and other two has null values)...
    Any ideas if we make it in a simplest way rather saying insert into xx_inv_tab2 (col1, col2, col3 ............................................. col75) values (seq, col1, col2..........................col75, null, null)
    Help Appreciated..
    Thanks

    Easy
    untested
    insert into xx_inv_tab2 t2 (col1,col2,col3,col4)
    select yourSequence.nextval, t1.col1, t1.col2, t1.col3
    from xx_inv_tab1 t1
    ;Note that col5 does not need to be used, since you want to fill it with NULL.
    USe excel or sql developer to write you a list of column names, if you are to lazy to write all 75 columns by yourself.
    What might also work:
    untested
    insert into xx_inv_tab2 t2
    select yourSequence.nextval, t1.*, null
    from xx_inv_tab1 t1
